Review for The Heidelberg Project, Detroit, MI, USA

Rating: 5 stars  

Tyree, Jenenne and the Heidelberg Project are one of Detroit's teasures, one that we share with the world. The language of art surpasses all barriers and speaks volumes about life and the way we live it. The Heidelberg Project challenges each of us who engage in it to rethink our social and economical judgements. It validates our varied cultures and backgrounds and asks us to consider and rethink our priorities. It invites those of all ages and levels of understanding to see that we each have a job to do, we are important as individuals and our comments and actions do matter. Here is a project that has thoughtfully provoked and engaged a world audience...and it started with a kid, a paint brush and some paint.

I've personally experienced the results of this organization in...

the artwork of elementary students who each became someone as artists, learning that art is a language that reaches everyone....their lives will never be the same.

What I've enjoyed the most about my experience with this nonprofit is...

that it's existence begs thoughtfulness, generosity and hope. It makes us all important and affirms that everyone has a job to do that can make a huge difference.

If this organization had 10 million bucks, it could...

do what it has already done on a shoestring...but bigger!

How frequently have you been involved with the organization?
